The '''Golden Raspberry Awards''' (also known as the '''Razzies''' and '''Razzie Awards''') is a parody award show honoring the worst of cinematic failures. Co-founded by [[University of California, Los Angeles|UCLA]] film graduates and film industry veterans [[John J. B. Wilson]] and Mo Murphy, the Razzie Awards' satirical annual ceremony is predated by its progenitor, the [[Academy Awards]], by five decades. The term ''[[wikt:raspberry|raspberry]]'' is used in its irreverent sense, as in "[[blowing a raspberry]]". The statuette is a golf ball-sized raspberry atop a [[Super 8mm film]] reel atop a 35-millimeter film core with brown wood shelf paper glued and wrapped around it—sitting atop a jar lid spray-painted gold. The Golden Raspberry Foundation has claimed that the award "encourages well-known filmmakers and top-notch performers to own their bad."

The [[1st Golden Raspberry Awards|first Golden Raspberry Awards]] ceremony was held on March 31, 1981, in John J. B. Wilson's living-room alcove in Hollywood, to honor the perceived worst films of the [[1980 in film|1980 film season]]. [[Sylvester Stallone]] has the most Razzies, with 12.
